Construction and Engineering
Overview
Canada’s construction and engineering sector consists of companies and firms of all shapes and sizes including multi-nationals that operate on projects worldwide. This sector is responsible for building large-scale infrastructure and is largely tied to government investment in public infrastructure and private sector investment. Issues can arise with regard to construction disputes, cancelled or breach of contract claims and allegations of corruption and bribery. When allegations and disputes arise, having financial and accounting experts that are versed the challenges facing the construction and engineering sector is paramount.
